Someone here

@Nahm nice one. I love it @Inliytened1 haha lol that guy lost his beans cuz I told him bro

There is half truth in that. Denying the existence of something should imply at least an appearance of that thing that is being denied.. Otherwise wtf are you denying in the first place? . How does the body relate to your identity is a deep and complicated topic. I don't believe you are the body ultimately. But in any case there is a body here.

Are you serious?

No obviously. But I'm talking about when the body is alert.

The suffer is the body.

What is your biggest fear?

Yeah so it's real as far as that identification is concerned?

Can you locate it?

Stop with the nonsense.. This isn't about conceptual games . Sit down and LOOk and OBSERVE how your thoughts and actions come about.

Good. What about fear?

What can you locate? ?

Idk dude just plain sensations of pain in the body. You seem to suggest that the sensations themselves are not suffering but rather labeling them as such is. But I don't think it's up to you.

An interesting insight. Thanks for sharing.

Is this your experience?

No. Nothing counts as free will. You have as much control over your life as you have over my life. Zero.

@SS10 Sit down and stop your thoughts for 30 seconds. If you could we will conclude that you have free will. If you couldn't.. We will conclude that you don't have free will.

Fear is a threat to the the finite from that you think you are.. If you are formless.. What can threat you?

Well if you want that then go die.. Completely let go of this meat suit and Dissolve back into infinity. Don't be so attached to this body and then complain about fear. The body is fear. At best just a house of diseases.. Needs and cravings.. And at the end just a food for bugs.

This is a fairy tale. Enlightenment doesn't mean you will become a superman. Ramana maharshi died from cancer. It just means you are absolutely clear about the true nature of yourself and reality.

The body?

Don't you believe direct experience is all that exists and nothing is outside of it? Is there something hidden that exists yet not accessible to my direct experience? If so then direct experience is not the whole shebang.

@SS10 this whole "we" bullshit tho..

Prison privileges are not freedom

The atheist vs religious is just an example. There is a Kernel of truth and kernel of falsehood in every worldview . However we can speak about people who are less attached to beliefs and ideology as more in touch with Truth and closer to enlightenment than those who are stuck in their mind thinking about the world in certain Ways and unable to see the limits of their worldview and here is where open mindedness comes in.. ..

Hell yeah I like that guy.. Funny af
